I give her a brief smile and grab another brownie.
My hands are feeling awkward and empty ,so holding the treat helps.
Esin
Yeah, it's one of my favourites.
Feriha
Me too.
An awkward silence falls, the only sound coming from the TV.
Esin
(Come on, Esin . Don't let the conversation drop!)
Esin
(She initiated it so you should keep it going!)
I nod at the screen where Naruto is begging Lady Tsunade aka The fifth hokage, to go look for Sasuke.
Esin
I love how Naruto is determined to go look for his comrade and he's so comical and amusing, unlike boring and the dull Sasuke who's gone to Orochimaru for some "power".
Esin
And he's just like me, stubborn and determined on that one thing.
I take a long breath, not used to talking so much to a virtual stranger.
Even if she's been living under my roof for three days!
Her eyes dart to mine, meeting them quickly before looking back at the TV.
Feriha
You think you're stubborn and determined?
Esin
I do. Just like I'm determined on learning languages and french is one of them. I'm in the science stream, an Engineering student. But still I enjoy reading British and American literature.
Esin
Do you like to read?
Feriha
It's okay, but I prefer to draw.
My eyebrows rise as I look at her.
Esin
Really? I didn't peg you as the artist- type. Uh not that I pegged you as anything , really...
I blush, looking down before meeting her gaze again.
Esin
(She's still impossible to read! Damn!?)
